Techinspector Have you seen a 12ft Leblond lathe?
I've got a flat bed picking up a 1930's leblond metal lathe.
I've been talking to this buddy of mine for a couple years
about it. He used to have his own company using it to
rebuild water pumps mastercylinders and things like that.
Well he told me the other day it was my last chance since
someone else was interested in purchasing it.
Not a good time for me since I just under went surgery
last week to have a bag installed.
But I didn't want to miss my chance and it was a good price
with all the tooling and has a new motor for 8 hundred.
Can you recomend any good training books for it. Kurt

LeBlond Regal Lathe 1930's
Here's a photo of what my New used Lathe looks like.
This is not my photo just what it looks like.
Hey Pat I know the tig is a better welder.
Thats the only welder I have never used.
I didn't like the mig of the old days but these newer
gas migs are alot better. I see people talking about
cold starts and stuff like that.
But I allways over lap my ends if you know what I mean.
All my welder are 250's I had a old 110 mig for sheet metal
but that thing was messier than a stick welder so I got rid of it.
What would be a decent tig machine for the money,
or what brand do you like. Kurt
